shack ah... track n bball in e same dae is rather tiring. hmm i need a few sessions of intervals to get sprintin form back, drills shud help too. n yes i need to jump higher for bball...
well chendol softee from 7-11 is damn nice, bought sum wif gab gn on e wae home todae.
thank God it's wednesdae, slack dae finishin at 1210. aniwae thurs will be holidae n i'm ponnin sch on fri wif gab i think.

do i haf a shot at a place in bball committee? hmm... do hope i get in.

hmm playin bball wif ppl like michael n rayner is damn fun. pushes me cos michael is an offensive bulwark and rayner is a shen shooter. playin wif or against dem forces me to rethink e wae i plae.

my final destination has no express train goin there, but yea strugglin to put in e effort's a bummer. no pain no gain let's go dudes...

booyah dudes! manu scrapes 2-0 against tottenham. rather uninspired plae for 2/3s of e game... aniwae as soccernet puts it... "the title is man uniteds to lose now" :)

hmm tuitioned redhuan n howard in math juz now. they reeli need e help, red wuz workin in term1, and howard wuz doin ao math (like wth rite). reeli appreciate e fact tt i actually haf a grip on my work as compared to them. aniwae had a look at tpjc's notes (red's...). alot better than rj's... and e examples r more challengin. kinda surprising tho. asked red to get me a copy of tp's math notes for e whole 2 yrs. in fact for chem bio n econs too... tp is cool cos the photocopy shop has notes for e whole yr ready... n u can juz go there n buy. haha i'll neva step in lt1 ever again... :P

played a gd game of pool, far from sublime n inspired tho. guess e key thing is to double check at every single step e first few minutes ure at e table, n when u start to crap up ure shots... posture, lining up e ball, esp impt is gd stroke contact and follow thru. red's a quick learner... only his 3rd time playin and he can make shots across e table, cushion shots, banks...

hmm i've downed almost 60g of protein todae. may seem abit maniacal but yea i'm tryin to bulk up. did a whole bunch of pushups n dips not too long ago. aching slightly now...

btw go eat shit usa. think u can fix iraq in 18 months? suck it dudes. not fixin iraq like y'all din fix afghanistan is equivalent to rape on a global scale. n yes wth man u think u can dao france juz becos they dun quite agree wif y'all... pls i mean like it's gd to be opposed to violence dammit... like u bas3rds even found any weapons of mass destructn in iraq. eat shit bush n usa.

btw i realise tt i shudn exclude boybands from e music i listen to. blue is surprisingly gd haha.

*best in me
cos' you bring out the best in me
like no one else can do
that's why i'm by your side
that's why i love you

she brought out e best in me a long time ago. i wanted it to happen wif -her-. a long time ago aniwae. now i'm glad it didn. u made me struggle, and u hardly spared a thought for my feelings, when ures were all tt mattered to me. thanx cos now i know what to steer clear of... ppl like u. yes, ppl like u.

last night, i had a dream about you
in this dream, i'm dancing right beside you
and it looked, like everyone was having fun
the kind of feeling, i waited so long

don't stop, come a little closer
as we jam, the rhythm gets stronger
there's nothing wrong, with just a little little fun
we were dancing, all night long

the time is right, to put my arms around you
you're feeling right, you'll wrap arms around too
but suddenly, i feel the shining sun
before i knew it, this dream was all gone

oh, i don't know what to do
about this dream and you
i wish this dream comes true

oh, i don't know what to do
about this dream and you
we'll make this dream come true

daft punk-digital love

oh aerodynamic by them is pretty nice too, esp e guitar solo

hmm furniture rearrangement in my room (shared wif all my bros) wuz interestin, nostalgic in fact. goin thru all my stuff... e rush of memories of ri daes, pri sch daes even... tracing my progress in history... from 12/25 in sec3 term1 to 22/25 eventually... e bdae cards i got from frens, super great ppl like rumin, xmas cards from zhengyuan, lame stuff like bdae cards i bought but neva dared to give... y i haf no idea... for fear of seemin trite? e postcards from e gals i was close to in sec sch. e letters. boy i'm sentimental.

and yes... game manuals, diablo, starcraft, quest for glory, utterly mesmerised in my earlier daes by e storylines of e games. esp loved e quest for glory roleplayin/adventure style of gamin :) played e whole series from like 7 till i wuz 16 man... wow... great experience... alwaes loved to plae e hero. e paladin who chased e demons back to their homeworld. e paladin who fought for honour. e paladin who dared to venture into e depths of hades to save a fren. yes... honour, smthin missin in dis age n time. n i look at myself and feel so very hollow.

where has e burnin idealism of earlier daes gone? it all seems so jaded now. i wanted to take myself as far as my mind heart n soul could... so yea i got into ri. wat's next? i got into rj... wat's nxt? wtf man i did almost nothin to get where i am. other ppl struggle... i've almost never needed to. other ppl deserve alot better. tim shudn haf been kicked out of rj. hongyi deserved to stay. i bloody went to orchard after every single olvl paper of mine... wat's left for me to do? it's kinda lame nowadaes. sch is mostly sleepin in e library, or in class, tokin to ppl in canteen or bball. i think i've sed it bfore tt i create the meanin in my life. guess i'm not very creative den :P i'm in a rut n i'll get out of it. juz need to feel abit of challenge now. now i understand how it can feel smtimes when u come across as too easy n loose to another person. like, where's e fun in an easy catch?

haha in but several minutes i've gone from feelin like sai to... pretty happy...
i shall pia my bball. all out assault on e 9 minute 2.4km barrier. preparation for nats nxt yr starts now...
if there's one thing tt'll neva put me off... tt is almost impossible to procrastinate abt... it's bball. realised how much bball is part of me. shud haf joined earlier :) but yea now's better than later i guess

self-analysis of your own thoughts. astoundin wat cognitive capacity e human brain possesses. even more astoundin is how stupid e human race can be at times. i think mebbe we shud all draw up personal constitutions. smtimes it helps to haf guidelines to adhere to. bein a participant in idiocy is when i think abt it, too self-deprecating and demeaning. den again e issue's subjective la. smtimes u can haf fun bein an idiot and not cause harm to anione or ureself either... so y not den? wud God be pissed? i forget far too often tt i e only reason i exist is cos of the guy up there. atheist detractors go ahead n mentally catalogue me as lunatic, i dun gif a shit.

haha anger management is pretty hilarious stuff. rush down to e cinema n watch it... YES WATCH IT! worth every cent of e 8.50...

fergie, sell off beckham and it's likely e whole world will condemn u to e darkest nether-regions of burning smoulderin fuckedup hell

hmm i'm sorry clara... for bein abit pissed. esp after watchin smthin like anger management :P hungry, sian, headache... e thought of gettin grilled by dad makes me crawl in my skin. hope u had a gd tok wif ng yun...

i can feel it... i'm gainin my fitness... target is sub 920 for 2.4 napfa... 6 pullups or more will do fine... but napfa aside i'm gonna improve my vertical leap. rebounds, blocks, gettin tuff shots off... need e jumpin height for that... not to mention it makes layups that much easier... i'm not sure if hittin e gym will help for leaping higher tho... considerin tt vertical leap is very fast twitch... and weights are done slowly... shall look ard for info...

math tuition wif howard n redhuan tmr... n i'm e tutor by sum amazin twist of fate. it's a gd way of catchin up wif dem since they arent in rj :) so little time, but so mani frens whom i've drifted awae from... needa catch up wif lots of dem

well i like my project work grp... munyuk, daph, me, magng, yuhsin... by e looks of it i will be playin an abstract role, e idea machine, while everyone else will be doin e less palatable stuff like takin minutes, typin stuff n crap
gotta grouse wif e choice of project tasks... it reeli is very limited in scope and will take alot of time to brainstorm a passable topic.
times like these i wish i cud leave for e usa earli, bloody waste of time e kind of shit moe is throwin at us.

bball rox. dun u ever dare sae otherwise. dun u ever gif up on our team. to e j1s, take a leap of faith and till nxt yrs nationals carry it in your heart tt we will make it, and we will be a medal team nxt yr, tt we haf everything we need to boogie wif e rest!

watching darren wif a bball is wonderful. he has eagle eyed court vision, bullet passes, not to mention his dribbling is rather fuckin elusive sublime n fluid. wow. i need to reach, and surpass his standard... his ball handlin is point guard style but i wanna be a small forward/shooting guard wif e best dribbling on e team...

hmm aniwae after a little thought it seems my timetable isnt as dreadful as initially thought.
mondae ends 250 (skip econs lec at end)
tues 510 (might as well since i haf trainin)
wed 1210

fridae 350 (well kinda sucky but since i usually stay in sch till bout 5 on fridaes to ball... not so bad la)

hmm sumhow my lack of sleep hasnt had any particularly debilitating effects on me... not yet aniwae. well plenty of gp chem n math tmr to sleep in... track trainin tmr... i hope my hurdlin isnt too rusty :P

love e warm feelin i get when i noe i've helped sumone. even more if e person sez thx :)
hmm realise tt alot of e campaigners for council r reeli feelin' e heat. i hear only 30 or so will become councillors. seein how alot of dem haf given alot... i reeli feel for dose who wun make it thru. tt's life... we shud learn to value e journey more than e destination sumtimes i guess :P

aching all over due to track todae, we did plenty of weights. n summore i think i only did 50-60% of wat we were supp to do... oops start buckin up zhaf... realise how much i DO want to plae bball... and how much i reeli wanna hurdle again. i guess i'll gif e weekly weights dae a miss... go for e rest...

u noe sum ppl shud juz shut up. will u juz wait for me to do it bfore goin on abt how i wont... pls... n u reeli haf a problem... if u piss me off and i ignore u ure unhappy, if i swear back ure unhappy too, wat u expect me to sweettalk u into sayin sorry? eat shit

hmm chem test, read thru e notes for abit juz now, will look thru bfore i sleep and again on e wae to sch later... easy topic so A shud be manageable even if i'm never in lt1 for anitin

hmm my hair's growin quickly. still, it'll be at least 5 weeks bfore it'll be e length i want. shall find a gd hairstylist and get a pro pro cut... e kind where the hair is thinned so much it all flares up even if e hair is bloody long...

hmm it's nice runnin for track wif little pressure on me... if things go well i'll break my personal best for 400hurdles... but e final target is still e elusive 60 seconds

yes it's decided. i shall run for faction. haha mebbe it's cos i've started runnin for track again :P... relax relax dun smash e com screen... i've never tried to get involved... so yea i'll gif it a go now... and aniwae i need sum leadership stuff in my jc testimonial... realise now tt i'll prob get 4as easily... but if i dun start soon i'll be sorely lackin on e non-academic side. bummer

haha it's funny how she's built bigger den me... no it's not fat... juz big bones tt's all... well compensated by me bein taller? i duno i'm not makin headway so i'll back off. shudn take anitin seriously hehe... laid back is e wae... goin by wat ppl like shengrong n ivan sim r like... i'd prob be alot happier... :)

hmm jc is reeli a more accurate reflection of e real-cutthroat-dog-eat-dog world tt we live in.
mebbe tt's y so many of us arent too happy where we are? well... accept it man... i think i have
wateva is i believe i will crawl out of e shit life hurls at me. i will be on top in e end. i'll keep dis in mind, n basically i'll be prepared for almost aniting.
i create e meaning in my life, and i will make jc sumthin for me n my frens to remember.

i think i'll go for track. there's a shortage of hurdlers hehe... n kinda miss hurdling :(... it'll be an uphill challenge to get back my lost fitness tho... aniwae first target is 57-58 for 400... and 64 for 400hurdles... i'll hit those n we'll see from there. drats, not much time bfore nationals...

well... my thoughts are rather garbled currently
there's been alot to think abt lately.
hmm things seem fine on e surface... but underneath... abit unsettled... isit juz me, or r alot of us lidat? n y r we lidat?

guess i haf too much free time on my hands... not gd... makes me think too much bout life... cos honestly when u look at life objectively there's alot tt duzn go rite... n it alwaes makes ya feel abit off i guess...

talked abit to howard n tim... not havin too enjoyable an experience in acjc... the rules too stifling for howard... n tim bein sumwat dissatisfied wif himself in relation to his new class... it's a struggle for dem... for all of us i guess. we only grow thru struggle, n yea i noe tt u 2 will be all e stronger n wiser at e end of it all. above all get enuff sleep man... e best remedy for lotsa stuff haha... i reeli miss e 2 of u... i miss e ppl who left rj...

i've alwaes preached tt circumstances will never be perfect, and it's nigh impossible to change dem... tt e change shud come from ourselves instead, mould ourselves to better tolerate e shit in life... but as much as i preach it... it's hard to do sumtimes dammit

back to sch todae, reeli happy bout it man. juz abt everyone's wearing rj u... but yea it sux. it's thick n makes us all sweat bleedin profusely. e shirts aren't long enuff so there's no excess to tuck out... e pants are so short tt i can see my socks when i sit down. n e company calls demselves finest fashion... *pui... haha but yea on a lighter note it's gd to see e spirits of 1so3d up :) glad e newcomers r mixing well wif us... tho i still wish we cud get qinghan edward n carissa back :(
hmm glad e j1 ballers will be bballin on sat mornin... e non sch team ppl tt is... i think we will make a great bunch and i believe if we pour our heart n soul into e game we'll give a gd showin as soon as milo championships dis yr... and considerin tt e batch below us is pretty darn gd we'll haf a shot at e title nxt yr...

i wish i had a handphone. it's annoyin having to memorise e numbers of ppl i wanna go out wif... using 10cent coins on public phones... and frens who dun pick up if a number duzn show (no u dun get a number if ure called by a public phone). problem is i don't like asking my parents for stuff. it sucks imposing on others, especially blood relations.

haha my bro sez ocs is like club rjc... like 9 ppl from his sec4 class r in ocs... neat how ri boys will almost never be alone at the top... cos ure ex-schmates alwaes seem to be around...

juz got my response from stanford... rejected :(... haha actually i kept tellin myself while waiting for their reply tt i wudn go even if i wuz accepted... sumhow seems like cambridge medicine looks gd... so yea i'll be workin towards tt :)
surprising tho how even outstanding ppl like wong shiming can get rejected at oxford AND cambridge... weird

haha mum's been complaining bout my messy room for quite awhile... but i mean it's nothing beyond the books being off the shelves...

it's interesting hearing abt how slack ns can be for some ppl. u shud aim to get posted to signals... u juz travel wif a unit n use a walkie-talkie to report e status of e unit now n den.song bo???? my bro kena posted MP... military police... u noe dose dudes who keep things orderly durin nat dae parade haha... pretty slack i heard... like my bro gets to come home every other day.my bro is glad he wont haf to chiong sua into e jungle 5 daes a wk haha... n glad tt he's far awae from tekong... no he din kena ani encounters of e 3rd kind there

hmm love kylie's groovy tunes... esp if they're specially dj-remixed... makes ya feel like dancin... try finding In your eyes (DJ Mykeyb remix)... it's a pretty rare remix... only 2-3 on kazaa had it e last time i checked

what on earth am i meant to do
when this crowded place... there is only you
was gonna leave... now i have to stay
you have taken my breath away-ay-ayy
wu-u-u-u-u-u... is the world still spinnin' round? -spinnin around-
wu-u-u-u-u-u... i don't feel like coming down...
it's in your eyes
i can tell what you're thinking
my heart is sinking too
it's no surprise
i've been watching you lately
i wanna make it with you...

juz ask me for party music man... haf lots of it... RnB, house, dance, trance... aniting cept 80s disco remixes *puke...

hmm i shud go for a long run soon... gotta keep up my fitness... preparation for becoming a jordan/kobe hybrid shen bball player ;)

finally after a long hiatus i'm back. remind me not to use darned opera browser to edit e blog... compatibility problems. aniwae dis has been a relatively uneventful holidae. it's rather hard to enuff ppl to go out wif u... darned sars... seriously i think we've reached new heights of paranoia. i mean out of 100 ppl who've contracted it 60+ haf recovered... pls man parents, haf a bit of confidence n let ure kids out into e world!


sum notable stuff like... at borders few daes back... reading Eat Right 4 Your Type by... dunno who... but yea look it up it's pretty revolutionary. bout how u shud tailor ure diet accordin to ure blood type. like O is e genetically oldest blood type belongin to e early hunter gatherers... so O ppl shud haf more meat (NOT no veg n fruit)... A types developed wif e advent of agrarian society... so A types ought to go vegetarian... serious! then come e B ppl... like me n everyone in my nuclear family... B is a nomadic blood type tt kinda thrives on mixed diets... n has e best tolerance to lactose in dairy products too... we shud take dairy products on a fairly regular basis... remember e most stuff abt B... like we do best wif moderate intensity exercise like... martial arts, tennis, golf... haha i shud stop bballin then (rite...)... B's haf adaptable immune systems but are vulnerable to slow acting viruses tt erode our nervous systems... aka we're more susceptible to alzheimers, parkinsons... wtf man. okae den AB... sheesh i can't remember anitin bout AB... shud go back n read e bk again... intriguing stuff tho i dun buy everythin e author (mind u he noes his biological science) sez.


hmm i've redownloaded snes emulator + roms... gettin into e groove of FF(final fantasy)-ing late into e nite... make tt mornin actually. brings back memories of p6-s1 when games took up 5+ hrs daily haha. not worried bout bein addicted tho... juz a lame alternative o bball, pool n other stuff.


hehe lost my wallet at lido earlier dis wk... damned glad it was found todae... but my 60 bux in notes gone... and so were ALL of my 10 n 20cent coins... haha... at least i dun haf to replace my ezlink card... n ya i still haf my older bro's ezlink card to get me into parties... n my mambo billiards membership card too :P

shadow striker perpetually in disguise,


sinister coward don't you realise,


that backstabber, you are nothing,


for i find you so lacking,


pity that's all you'll ever be,


someone who can't face up to me.


- - - - -



can't touch me, not now, not ever.


don't try stoppin me, it's a futile endeavour.


- - - - -


Hope is the faint glimmer in the dark, that which illumes the despondent depths of despair.


Hope is the rope that tethers me to the prospect of brighter tomorrows, keeping me from an awry descent into a place where all that is important to me is long gone and irretrievable.


Hope floats, buoyed by the kind words of loved ones, those we used to love, those who stopped loving us, and even those we love without ever realizing it.


Hope is my face turned to the high heavens, arms outstretched, in prayer. It is the leap of faith where I let go. Where I do what I can and must do, and acquiesce, "God, I trust in you. Do what You will with me. I am in Your fold now."


Life at times - Scary, mortifying, terrifying. Something I'm not always prepared for. But I will stand my ground.


For the pain of letting go of my dreams, of wondering "what if?" would be far more excruciating than the long and arduous road that ends in a glorious reality where dreams are manifested through my blood, sweat and toil.


And yes, I do need help. So help me God.
